I set off from Andover @ 10 am this morning looking forward to a leisurely journey to Colchester via the M25 thru the Dartford crossing. I listened to the test match on Talk sport oblivious to any thing else . I called my brother who was meant to be on the Grecian travel coach when i got to Chelmsford to arrange a beer rendezvous .The hands free connection was poor but i heard him shouting "it is tomorrow !"
Hey ho ,back via the M25 north
I am not doing it again , i will watch on i player
Wife thinks it was deliberate because her Mother is here for Christmas !

Happy new year all

Have another go tomorrow, mother-in-law won't mind. She probably won't mind at all.

Just send the M-i-L to that soulless pit of Essexness in your place tomorrow while you watch the match in I player induced peace and comfort.

Win-win I'd say ... and, hopefully, by 5pm tomorrow it will be win-win-WIN!!!

If i had to agree with you we would both be wrong
So does that mean you have a spare ticket ? ;)

No spare ticket i am afraid as i planned to pay on the gate
I have just paid my £3 online fee for using the Dartford crossing to add insult to injury

Great story! (I suspect you weren't the only one among all the league clubs, just the only one admitting it ...)
